Information processing apparatus and non-transitory computer readable recording medium

Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes: a management system that detects a user operation and acquires information input by the operation as data to be supplied to an electronic apparatus; and a setting system that supplies a first sub-module to the electronic apparatus, the electronic apparatus including one or more electronic apparatuses, the first sub-module being to be installed in each of the one or more electronic apparatuses to allow each of the one or more electronic apparatuses to execute a particular function, and executes a second sub-module to cause the management system to acquire setting data, the setting data being necessary for each of the one or more electronic apparatuses to execute the first sub-module, and to supply the setting data acquired by the management system to the one or more electronic apparatuses.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. An information processing apparatus, comprising:
 a management system that detects a user operation and acquires information input by the operation as setting data to be supplied to an electronic apparatus; and 
 a setting system that
 acquires a software module including a first sub-module and a second sub-module, 
 collectively supplies the first sub-module included in the acquired software module to a plurality of electronic apparatuses, the first sub-module being to be installed in each of the plurality of electronic apparatuses to allow each of the plurality of electronic apparatuses to execute a particular function, 
 acquires a response from each of electronic apparatuses, that have successfully installed the first sub-module, out of the plurality of electronic apparatuses to which the first sub-module is supplied, the response indicating that the first sub-module has been successfully installed, and 
 executes the second sub-module included in the acquired software module
 to cause the management system to acquire the setting data, the setting data being necessary for each of the electronic apparatuses to execute the first sub-module, and 
 to collectively supply the setting data acquired by the management system to the electronic apparatuses, that have successfully installed the first sub-module. 
 
 
 
     
     
       2. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the setting system causes the management system
 to detect a particular user operation, and 
 to acquire the setting data to be supplied to the electronic apparatus that has successfully installed the first sub-module. 
 
 
     
     
       3. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the setting system
 supplies information for identifying the electronic apparatus that has successfully installed the first sub-module to the management system, 
 causes the management system
 to detect a particular user operation, and 
 to select information for identifying the electronic apparatus to which the setting data is to be supplied, of the electronic apparatus that has successfully installed the first sub-module, and 
 
 supplies the setting data to the electronic apparatus corresponding to the information for identifying the electronic apparatus selected by the management system. 
 
 
     
     
       4. The information processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein
 a function executed by the electronic apparatus by installing the first sub-module includes a function other than a function normally installed in the electronic apparatus. 
 
     
     
       5. A non-transitory computer readable recording medium that records a program, the program causing a computer of an information processing apparatus to operate as:
 a management system that detects a user operation and acquires information input by the operation as setting data to be supplied to an electronic apparatus; and 
 a setting system that communicates with the management system, wherein 
 the program causes the setting system
 to acquire a software module including a first sub-module and a second sub-module, 
 to collectively supply the first sub-module included in the acquired software module to a plurality of electronic apparatuses, the first sub-module being to be installed in each of the plurality of electronic apparatuses to allow each of the plurality of electronic apparatuses to execute a particular function, 
 to acquire a response from each of electronic apparatuses, that have successfully installed the first sub-module, out of the plurality of electronic apparatuses to which the first sub-module is supplied, the response indicating that the first sub-module has been successfully installed, and 
 to execute the second sub-module included in the acquired software module 
 to cause the management system to acquire the setting data, the setting data being necessary for each of the electronic apparatuses to execute the first sub-module, and 
 to collectively supply the setting data acquired by the management system to the electronic apparatuses, that have successfully installed the first sub-module.
